VO5 Heading Out: Bambi Paradise’s weekend at Y Not Festival

Y Not is one of the nation’s most beautiful festivals. Taking place in the Peak District, it boasts rolling hills, gorgeous scenes and a whole load of indie goodness. This year, the festival was occupied by some of the nation’s finest bands, with The Libertines, Manic Street Preachers, Catfish and The Bottlemen all joining rising acts like Circa Waves, Fickle Friends and The Sherlocks on the bill. Our mate Bambi Paradise headed on down for another scorching weekend.

Bass Ace

If you dig The Courteeners and early Oasis - The Sherlocks are for you. They pair big ol' choruses with witty, every day observations for relatable lyrics within the anthems.

Stack It Up

Bambi, rocking a vintage dress and some trusty Doc Martens, played a bit of Extreme Jenga inbetween running around and seeing loads of bands. She'll be playing Buckaroo next year, probably.
